Wooden Chair
By Marc Newson for Cappellini
Wooden Chair
Description
The Wooden Chair, successful proof of great experimentation and daring., was born of the desire to push the manipulation of wood to its limits. It is a modern, innovative seat, yet it is also warm, cozy and comfortable. The structure, made of oiled natural solid beech wood, is fluid and continuous, almost organic. The beech wood planks, bent with hot steam to form a double curve, are supported by two horizontal reinforcements: 2 at the ends and 3 in the seat area, all fastened with visible screws.
The Wooden Chair was designed by Australian born designer, Marc Newson. Newson has been described as one of the most influential designers of his generation. He has worked across a wide range of disciplines, and his clients include some of the best-known and most prestigious brands, spanning diverse sectors from manufacturing and technology to transportation, fashion and luxury goods. He is the only designer represented by the Gagosian Gallery, and leading museums around the world have hosted solo retrospective exhibitions of his design work.
The Cappellini catalogue features some of Newson’s most iconic furniture designs, including the Embryo Chair, Felt Chair and Orgone Lounge and Table. The collection also includes the Riga Desk, Wooden Chair, Hangman clothes rack, Newson Vase and its update, the Glass Newson Vase. The Wooden Chair and Orgone Lounge and Table were some of Newson’s first designs to be put into production and have been manufactured by Cappellini since 1989.

What is Freight shipping?

Furniture arrives curbside, often on the shipping pallet for protection.
